Chapter 354: 356: Phoenix Nest



After safely storing the letter, Zhu Minglang fell into a contemplation.

Li Yunzi meant for him to meet up with them as soon as possible and return to Li Chuan together.

But Zhu Minglang hesitated.

All four dragons were in the midst of Reincarnation Transformation. The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon was not as reliable as he’d hoped, providing protection but no use in a fight.

If he would return to Li Chuan now, he wouldn’t be able to search for the Phoenix Nests that could shorten the time of Reincarnation Transformation.

Moreover, the food for the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon would become a huge problem.

The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon required Holy Spirit Blood. Although there were Ten Thousand Year Saint Spirits in Li Chuan Continent, Zhu Minglang estimated that they might be driven to extinction by the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon in a few months, which would be incredibly harmful to the ecological environment!

The Supreme Court Courtyard Continent was vast with many demon spirits, and although Saint Spirits were rare there, with some effort he could still find some.

If the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon were obedient, it wouldn’t be an issue. Consuming blood from a Thousand Year Demon Spirit could barely sustain it. The fear was that such a method might lead to the dragon’s rebellion. If the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon rebelled, it would be a disaster for the Li Chuan Continent, unstoppable by anyone.

“City Lord, are you setting off soon? Actually, there’s no need for you to worry about Runyu City anymore. Everything is on the right track here. Slaughter Country and Godly Mortal Academy have become our strong support. You can be a hands-off manager, assured that each time you return, you’ll see a different Runyu City!” said Hu Bailing, brimming with confidence.

“No worries, I’m not planning to return to Li Chuan right now. There are some matters I need to take care of. ‘A short parting is better than a newlywed,’ and my grandmother is gravely ill; it was sudden, and they really had no choice but to go back,” Zhu Minglang replied.

“Ah? They kept reminding me to tell you their exact route so that you wouldn’t get lost trying to meet up with them. You can tell, they’re not quite used to not having you around,” Hu Bailing earnestly said.

“They are not as fragile as they seem,” Zhu Minglang said with a smile.

There was no need to worry. If Li Yunzi had indeed awakened, with her wisdom and strength, she could resolve even the toughest situations. Coupled with the current strength of Nan Lingsha and Nan Yuso, and the absence of King Level figures in Li Chuan Continent, they would naturally be able to handle things easily.

It was Zhu Minglang himself who needed to resolve his current situation first, to help the four dragons complete their transformation stage as soon as possible. Even if only one dragon awakened, he could rapidly ascend to realms he had never touched before.

It might not be a bad thing, considering he had a hidden enemy that was a mighty King Level figure. Zhu Minglang needed to travel by himself for a while.

Unfortunately, this time he would be heading to the Neon Sea alone.

The Neon Sea was also known as the Dragon Sea. The countries surrounding the Neon Sea all revered Dragon Trainers, including the Supreme Court of the Dragon Taming Academy, which was nearby. The resources there were quite abundant.

Each dragon needed a complete reshaping, from attributes to bloodlines. Zhu Minglang would require a vast amount of spiritual resources, something that only the incredibly rich Neon Sea could provide perfectly.

“I’ll write a letter. You deliver it to them as quickly as possible, telling them to wait for me in Li Chuan Continent. I’ll return to Li Chuan after some time,” Zhu Minglang soon made a decision.

It wouldn’t be too late to meet up with them once his strength was stable.

Li Yunzi’s principle was right. The only thing that could protect himself and the ones he cherished was his own formidable strength.

There shouldn’t be anyone in this world who could increase their strength faster than himself, including the beings from beyond the sky.

All he lacked was the time to calm down and practice cultivation.

“Okay,” Hu Bailing nodded.

“What was the second matter you mentioned?” Zhu Minglang inquired.

“This, do you think it’s something you need?” asked Hu Bailing as she suddenly remembered something urgent, scurrying towards the hall and returning with a wooden box.

The wooden box was exquisite, clearly a costly item.

Inside the box was an object resembling jade glass, partially shattered and exuding a faint, heart-penetrating scent.

“What is this?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“A Phoenix Nest, stumbled upon by a mountain gatherer. Hearing that the City Lord needed such treasures, my subordinates immediately bought it at a high price from some unscrupulous merchants!” Hu Bailing’s face revealed a smile, seemingly proud to have accomplished something for Zhu Minglang.

Zhu Minglang’s face also showed surprise.

No wonder those Dragon Trainers wanted to conquer cities and hunt nations!

The power of the people is infinite indeed. A cultivator would likely wear out their shoes yet not find a single phoenix feather, let alone a Phoenix Nest.

“It is said that it’s a Three Thousand Year Jade Phoenix Saint Spirit that dwelled on a mysterious island in the Neon Sea. It’s just unfortunate that the other Phoenix Nests have fallen into the hands of some well-known families and nobles of the Neon Sea; otherwise, they could give the City Lord something even more significant than this,” said Hu Bailing.

“This is already quite good.”

“Oh, and about the Holy Spirit Blood, we’ve also acquired some. If you want to proceed with your journey, take them with you. We have arranged to purchase Holy Spirit Blood from all the powers in the Tea-colored Ground regularly, so we should receive a small portion every month. You can come back periodically to collect it,” Hu Bailing mentioned.

“I couldn’t ask for more,” Zhu Minglang said satisfied.

It wouldn’t do if the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon got hungry each time and he had to trek distances to find Holy Spirits.

Gathering these things through the people would be much easier; after all, there’s strength in numbers.

“Do you want to take some of the other funds as well?”

“There’s no need for that; Runyu City needs to develop.”

“Alright then. If there’s anything you need, City Lord, tell us at any time. We’ll take care of the collection. Finding a rare item for the City Lord would be a matter of pride for each of us. After all, we serve the Dragon King Dragon Shepherd and enjoy your protection,” Hu Bailing had gone from a stubbornly strong woman to an intimately caring girl.

“`

She felt that Zhu Minglang had now become her own little faith.

“Okay, there should be quite a few needs in the future,” she said.

The Phoenix Nest was still a thirty-thousand-year-old Holy Spirit.

Indeed a treasure, Zhu Minglang woke Mr. Jinli and had it tell him how to use it.

“Where did you get this thing?” Mr. Jinli asked with wide fish eyes, not expecting Zhu Minglang to have obtained the Phoenix Nest so quickly.

“It was collected by the Hu Family siblings from the common folk,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Zhu Minglang, why don’t you discuss with your wife and conquer the Imperial Dynasty? With the subjects of the entire Supreme Court Courtyard Continent gathering spiritual treasures of the world for you, you could indulge every day with your four wives in a wine pool and meat forest, and become the supreme being of this eternal universe,” Mr. Jinli said earnestly.

“…”

Many spiritual resources appeared in rather odd places, and although Cultivators had special ways of finding them, they were far less efficient than the billions of common folk finding them by chance.

Many powerful creatures actually considered harmless mountaineers without cultivation bases as harmless as deer or rabbits. Even if they passed through their territories or approached their habitats, they would not pay them any mind.

This greatly facilitated these mountaineers in stealing Spirit Grass and Immortal Fruits.

Moreover, many cultivated and bred items could also produce spiritual resources. If systematically collected, these would amount to a considerable stock of spiritual resources, comparable to a Spirit Vein!

The power of the common folk had always been immense, which is why some rulers and sitting powers could endure for a long time!

Now that Zhu Minglang only had the newly revitalized Runyu City, he could already feel the benefits the city brought…

“As for ruling the continent, let’s take it slow. First tell me, how do I use this Phoenix Nest? Do I eat it, or does a dragon? Is it for external application or internal use?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Of course you eat it, how do you expect those colorful cocoons to open their mouths?” Mr. Jinli said irritably.

“After eating it, what should I do? Circulate my own inner strength, open up the meridians of the Spirit Realm, something like that?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“After eating it, there will be a ball of energy in your stomach similar to a flame, which you have to slowly absorb. This will greatly help your Dragon Shepherd cultivation base. Afterwards, you should observe the attributes of this ball of energy. If it’s ice, wind, stars, or the like, naturally channel it to Little Bai Qi. If it’s attributes like wood or light, channel it to Little Qing Zhuo. If it’s metal elements, rare ores, guide them to Mo Ye. If it’s water, beasts, blood or similar properties, channel them to Big Black Tooth,” Mr. Jinli explained.

Channel it according to each dragon’s attributes.

Whichever dragon it matches, channel the energy to that one.

This wasn’t difficult to understand.

The absorption of many spiritual resources required the guidance of Dragon Shepherds to avoid mixing in impurities and to maximize absorption.

Zhu Minglang did as Mr. Jinli guided him.

After consumption, his body did indeed become very hot, and he could feel the Phoenix Nest was filled with ancient and potent source energy, chaotically surging through his body.

Zhu Minglang concentrated them and began to absorb.

Soon Zhu Minglang felt subtle changes taking place in his Spirit Realm, especially in the Spiritual Spring.

Before, the Spiritual Spring was like a slowly turning millstone, gradually absorbing Spirit Origin from heaven and earth into his body, forming the Spiritual Energy that could nourish Dragon Beasts, with Spirit Origin within hundreds of miles being drawn into it.

Now, the rotation speed of the Spiritual Spring was increasing, as if the old donkey beside the millstone had been replaced by a wild horse, grinding the Spirit Origin-grain into a more easily absorbed mush in minutes.

If there were Dragon Babies in the Spirit Realm right now, they would have benefited immensely, quickly ascending in level!

The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon also felt this slight change and half-opened its eyes.

Turning over, the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon slept even more soundly in this Spiritual Energy-filled warmth as if it was bathing in a hot spring, seeming even more satisfied with its little nest.

Zhu Minglang concentrated and began to discern the attributes and elements.

The color green signified wood.

The thirty-thousand-year-old Jade Phoenix also seemed to be nature’s favorite, the ruler of Spiritual Mountains and Fairy Isles.

Clearly, this attribute was suitable for the Divine Green Holy Dragon.

“It’s a wood attribute, the Essence of Nature,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Very good, it’s a match. Give it to Little Qing Zhuo, it should be the first to break out of the cocoon, and it won’t take long,” Mr. Jinli said.

“Wait, it seems there’s an unexpected gain… I, I have an additional Spirit Contract, naturally grown!” Zhu Minglang said with great joy.

“Purple Dragon!! Purple Dragon!!! This time it has to be a Purple Dragon!!!” Mr. Jinli roared, almost like an old father who heard his wife had conceived again, hoping for a son.

The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon opened its eyes once more, its cool and slightly fierce dragon face showing a bit of arrogance and ferocity.

What’s the matter, isn’t a colorful star dragon a progeny-bearing dragon anymore??, or is this Dragon King just an accident???
